The life-sized house of God has an altar, steeple, organ, and room for 100 guests. It&#8217;s available for weddings anywhere in the country. The world&#8217;s one and only inflatable church is here to allow couples to get married wherever their hearts desire. The air-filled building is 47 feet long by 25 feet wide and 47 feet high, complete with plastic &#8220;stained glass&#8221; windows, airbrush artwork which replicates a traditional church and can be assembled in 3 hours. The &#8220;walls&#8221; of what is really an odd-shaped ballon appear to be a couple of feet thick, which allows a substantial inside space. Current civil ceremonies can only be held in a church, registry office or specially licensed building, however, soon the law will be changed so the person conducting the ceremony will be licensed instead of the location. The &#8220;church&#8221; fits in a small trailer. The same company also rents out an inflatable pub.<BR><br \/>\n<\/P> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SourceLONDON, ENGLAND, May 13, 2003: Love is in the air thanks to Portsmouth inventor Mike Gill and his inflatable church.,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3116","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3116"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3116\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
